The javah tool has a -stubs option, but that no longer works in JDK 1.3 and
should just be removed.  Aside from that, my main issue is that I am generating
over 600 functions via the javah tool.  I have to cut-and-paste the .H file
declarations into a .CPP file and add names for all the parameters, and add
extern "C" to EVERY function.  This is very annoying and time consuming, and
every time I re-generate the headers, it all has to be done over again.  I know
the information for generating source files with named parameters has to be
easily accessible from the .java source file, and that's why I am perplexed
that it hasn't be done.  PLEASE add a new option to this tool to generate a
source file with a fully formed prototype, and if possible, include a return
  statement in the function where appropriate.  As an example, here is what I
would like to see...

-----
.JAVA
-----

public MyClass
{
    public int value;
} 

public class Texture
{
   public static native boolean foo1(MyClass a, int i);
   static {
      System.LoadLibrary("Texture");
   }
}

.H from JAVAH

  (JNIEnv *env, jclass cl_Texture, jobject a, jint i) // <--- notice naming
{
   jboolean jbResult = false;

   // TODO : INSERT YOUR CODE HERE

   return jbResult;
}
